All
right
,
Louis
.
Thank
you
.
"
"
Just
go
on
.
"
Jud
paused
a
moment
,
thinking
,
then
began
to
speak
.
"
In
those
days
--
back
during
the
war
,
I
mean
--
the
train
still
stopped
in
Orrington
,
and
Bill
Baterman
had
a
funeral
hack
there
at
the
loading
depot
to
meet
the
freight
carrying
the
body
of
his
son
Timmy
.
The
coffin
was
unloaded
by
four
railroadmen
.
I
was
one
of
them
.
There
was
an
army
fellow
on
board
from
Graves
and
Registration
--
that
was
the
army
's
wartime
version
of
undertakers
,
Louis
--
but
he
never
got
off
the
train
.
He
was
sitting
drunk
in
a
boxcar
that
still
had
twelve
coffins
in
it
.
"
We
put
Timmy
into
the
back
of
a
mortuary
Cadillac
--
in
those
days
it
still
was
n't
uncommon
to
hear
such
things
called
"
hurry-up
wagons
"
because
in
the
old
days
,
the
major
concern
was
to
get
them
into
the
ground
before
they
rotted
.
Bill
Baterman
stood
by
,
his
face
stony
and
kinda
...
I
dunno
...
kinda
dry
,
I
guess
you
'd
say
.
He
wept
no
tears
.
Huey
Garber
was
driving
the
train
that
day
,
and
he
said
that
army
fella
had
really
had
a
tour
for
himself
.
Huey
said
they
'd
flown
in
a
whole
shitload
of
those
coffins
to
Limestone
in
Presque
Isle
,
at
which
point
both
the
coffins
and
their
keeper
entrained
for
points
south
.
"
The
army
fella
comes
walking
up
to
Huey
,
and
he
takes
a
fifth
of
rye
whiskey
out
of
his
uniform
blouse
,
and
he
says
in
this
soft
,
drawly
Dixie
voice
,
"
Well
,
Mr.
Engineer
,
you
're
driving
a
mystery
train
today
,
did
you
know
that
?
'
"
Huey
shakes
his
head
.
"
Well
,
you
are
.
At
least
,
that
's
what
they
call
a
funeral
train
down
in
Alabama
.
"
Huey
says
the
fella
took
a
list
out
of
his
pocket
and
squinted
at
it
.
"
We
're
going
to
start
by
dropping
two
of
those
coffins
off
in
Houlton
,
and
then
I
've
got
one
for
Passadumkeag
,
two
for
Bangor
,
one
for
Derry
,
one
for
Ludlow
,
and
so
on
.
I
feel
like
a
fugging
milkman
.
You
want
a
drink
?
'
"
Well
,
Huey
declines
the
drink
on
the
grounds
that
the
Bangor
and
Aroostook
is
pretty
fussy
on
the
subject
of
train
drivers
with
rye
on
their
breaths
,
and
the
fella
from
Graves
and
Registration
do
n't
hold
it
against
Huey
,
any
more
than
Huey
holds
the
fact
of
the
army
fella
's
drunkenness
against
him
.
They
even
shook
on
her
,
Huey
said
.
